We continually strive to enhance the functionality and security of our vulnerability management platform.

We are pleased to introduce a significant advancement in access control: Asset Level ACLs. This new feature enhances our access control system by providing precise, granular permissions at the asset level, tailored to the specific needs and roles of our users.

Overview of Asset Level ACLs:

Asset Level ACLs are designed to extend and refine our platform’s access control functionalities, allowing for:

  • Granular Access Control: Users can be assigned specific permissions for asset groups or individual assets, enhancing data protection and operational security.
  • Cross-Project Asset Accessibility: Streamlines access across multiple projects, enabling users to manage assets without duplicating permissions, thus increasing efficiency.
  • Secure Data Management: Ensures that sensitive data is only accessible to authorized personnel, significantly bolstering security and preventing unintended data exposure.
  • New One Issue View: Introduces an efficient new view that helps engineers and users assigned to assets quickly access, assess, and remediate vulnerabilities.

User Benefits and Application:

Asset Level ACLs are particularly beneficial in complex cybersecurity environments where precise control over asset access is crucial.

They allow:

  • Tailored Access: Ensures team members have access only to the data necessary for their tasks, thereby minimizing risk and enhancing focus on relevant vulnerabilities.
  • Efficient Remediation: Engineers can swiftly view, evaluate, and address vulnerabilities, streamlining the remediation process and reducing response times.

How to use:

Administrators can easily implement Asset Level ACLs through our platform’s permissions module. By selecting asset groups or individual assets and defining access levels, administrators can ensure that permissions are aligned with user roles and responsibilities. Detailed setup instructions are provided in our platform’s knowledgebase.

Jon Bellard, Head of Product at Rootshell says, “The introduction of Asset Level ACLs to our platform marks a pivotal enhancement in our access control strategy. This feature allows precise access for engineers or users to relevant assets, bolstering security and streamlining the remediation process. It’s a transformative approach that ensures swift, focused remediation efforts and underscores our commitment to empowering users to manage cybersecurity risks more effectively.'”

The addition of Asset Level ACLs represents a significant step forward in our platform’s capability to manage access control effectively. By offering detailed control over asset access, we not only strengthen our security measures but also enable more streamlined and effective collaboration across projects.
